The benefits are fairly obvious and include: Getting your team in the bonus (the bonus is worth ~7 points per 100 bonus possessions, we estimate), fouling out one of your opponent's players, and inducing worse lineups/worse play as teams trying to avoid having players foul out. — PolitiTweet.org

OK, another very nerdy NBA analytics thing: One seeming problem with plus-minus metrics based on on-court/off-court performance is that getting a team in foul trouble has benefits for the remainder of the period/game whether a player is *on the court or not*. — PolitiTweet.org

Giannis drew 10.6 defensive + loose ball fouls per 100 possessions last regular season! Embiid 10.5, Blake Griffin 9.8, Harden 9.3. These guys are producing a fair bit of value that isn't really being captured by some advanced metrics. — PolitiTweet.org
